The fact is LoL is becoming a spectator sport, and laneswaps are boring to watch. laneswaps are boring to watch? are you kidding me? have you watched any of the gigabyte starswar league? the early destruction of the tower as well as the imbalance in lanes has led to a lot of exciting early action. teams are skirmishing more and even at the 10 minute mark you still see some semblance of laning phase that is only more exciting and riskier because there is no tower. that's not to say laneswaps are better, they're just a different way to play the game. hell i get excited watching the level 1 fights, level 1s are insane when you realize the mindgames people are playing. i don't think the stronger turrets will change much, i just think it means your dives can't be sloppy anymore. | ||

Also tower changes wont make the 2v1 and the lane swapping go away might make it not happen under 4 minutes but it'll still happen. *shrug* This really feels like overreaction by people | ||

GSWL laneswaps are sometimes exciting. However, most of those instances are where the laneswap is to mid, and the team tries to use the power to gain early dragons. This change barely affects this strat. The goal is to make the Purple switches to top laneswap less stagnant. Because in that situation, the outcome of a dive is not in question for the viewers who are not "in the dark" because of fog. We know it will be a 2v1, 3v1, 3v2. Thus, any plays based on the players not having that knowledge are not interesting to watch. | ||

At all. | ||

I think asking "is it interesting" is not really relevant because it really depend on a lot of things. Is it fun to see HotshotGG getting smashed four time in a row by a 3 man dive ? No. Is it fun to see Spontexx defend a 3vs1 and get a triple kill ? Most def. Weak tower promote action, wheither that action is boring or not. What I'm more interested is in the impact of a tower buff on the current meta. There are a some teams (Fnatic) that really abuse the current tower situation to a point where their play style is absolutly reliant on that, and really a tower buff mid season is questionable in this regard. What impact will it have ? | ||

She just looks like she has everything, the CD on her Q skillshot at 950 range is really stellar. And when mantra'd it has a stupid ratio. CDR will be core as she has almost ryzelike passive, and mantra access. It really seems like she could go in any role, maybe even jungle. | ||

I think she works really well as a mid, but would be trading the burst from more traditional mids for a lot more utility-- her mantra'd E is probably one of the flat out best spells in the game right now-- it makes a total of thousands of HP difference in a fight, and the speedboost is really sweet as well. Given her wave clear, sustain, shield, CC< poke and pseudo escapes, I think she would work as a sort of anti mage-- keep the enemy mid at a manageable level, then pretty much negate their burst in fights. I feel playing her as a support would be a waste. You'd probably build something like Shurleyas/ Twin Shadows/ Grail/Crucible, then idunno. EDIT: Mantra gives her a >1 ratio on all her spells. | ||

Our team is in Bronze I with two Silver players and three Golds. We get matched against a team with four Diamond Is and one Platinum IV. Like, I enjoy playing against better players than me, but there's a limit at which you don't learn much... | ||

What impact will it have ? I think its more than just defending 3v1 dives, its an attempt to change the calculus of the game. There are a bunch of things that Riot has said they don't like. One thing they don't like is passivity, but they also don't like earlygame ganks having such a huge effect. While in the pros it probably encourages the more interesting type of laneswap (mid) over toplane and hopefully encourages more dragonfights, it also has the desirable soloQ effect of preventing excessive snowballing. Probably it would be best if the change was only to outer Top/Bot turrets. | ||
